Then his best friend and King's Champion Tree the Cave Troll takes him to see the Wiseman and he learns of a magical stone called the Moonstone which can cure any illness.

But with the plague devastating both his family and nation, there is only one thing that Timothy and Tree can do, risk being turned into monsters by stealing the Moonstone from right under the suts and jaws of the Shapeshifters...
